Diamond Lyrics by Winchester

Life Begins At These Dead Ends

2018

There you hide, in your tower, in our soil
Empire built on your foundations made of blood, deceit and oil
You don't want or need the money
All you ever want is power
Our earth is eaten by the second, your heart blackens by the hour
We had a diamond in the rough
We were never good enough
To be trusted with
We had a diamond in the rough
We were never good enough
To be trusted with
This world in which we live
We cut away with no real thought
Sought perfection but fell short
Look at where we are
This place was perfect from the start
Look at the stars, think about how lucky you are
Look at the gift that you have, the hand you’ve been dealt
And what you've done so far
We're still stuck in the dark
How could you ever think that we’ve reached illumination?
Wait in short-lived luxury for this world's degeneration
We had a diamond in the rough
We were never good enough
To be trusted with
This world in which we live
We cut away with no real thought
Sought perfection but fell short
Look at where we are
This place was perfect from the start
Take one look at the world we'll inherit
Then please think about who's gonna make it
We had a diamond in the rough
We were never good enough
To be trusted with
This world in which we live
We cut away with no real thought
Sought perfection but fell short
Look at where we are
This place was perfect from the start
Give me your eyes
So I can see where you've gone wrong
Give me your hands
So I can undo what you've done
Give me your voice
I'll tell the truth you have ignored
Give me your life
I'll make it right
And then, oh fuck it, cut the cord
